About Our Truck Aftertreatment Repair Services

Modern diesel emissions systems rely on several interconnected components, and a failure in one area can affect engine performance or prevent proper DPF regeneration. At CMT Diagnostics and Repair, our technicians diagnose and repair EGR, DPF, DEF, and SCR system problems, helping fleet managers and owner-operators address emission-related faults before they lead to further operating restrictions.

Our truck aftertreatment repair services include:

  • EGR Valve Repair & Replacement: Inspect EGR valves for carbon buildup, sticking, and operational faults that interfere with proper exhaust gas recirculation
  • EGR Cooler Repair: Diagnose leaking or restricted EGR coolers that affect exhaust gas cooling, coolant retention, and engine operation
  • Truck DPF Cleaning: Evaluate soot and ash accumulation and perform appropriate filter cleaning to restore exhaust flow when the DPF remains serviceable
  • Forced DPF Regeneration: Diagnose regeneration failures and perform qualifying forced regeneration procedures when operating conditions and manufacturer specifications permit
  • DPF Sensor & Pressure System Repair: Test exhaust temperature sensors, differential pressure sensors, and related connections that affect filter monitoring and regeneration
  • DEF System Repair: Address fluid delivery problems involving DEF pumps, injectors, sensors, and related components that may trigger aftertreatment warnings
  • SCR System Diagnostics: Investigate SCR efficiency faults, emissions-related warning codes, and qualifying component problems affecting exhaust treatment

Our semi-truck DPF repair services focus on finding the cause of the problem before cleaning or replacing components. Identifying underlying faults helps reduce repeated regeneration failures, unnecessary repairs, and additional downtime.

Signs Your Truck Needs EGR or DPF Repair

Emissions system problems often become noticeable through dashboard warnings, reduced engine performance, or changes in regeneration frequency. Although some symptoms overlap, recognizing these conditions early can help prevent escalating operating restrictions and more extensive aftertreatment repairs.

Common warning signs include:

  • Frequent DPF Regeneration: Regeneration cycles occur more often than normal or fail to complete successfully
  • Reduced Engine Power: Your truck struggles to accelerate or maintain performance because an emissions-related fault has triggered an engine derate
  • Persistent DPF Warning Lights: Filter restriction or regeneration warnings remain active despite normal operating conditions
  • Increased Exhaust Backpressure: A restricted DPF may cause higher exhaust restriction readings and reduced engine performance
  • Unusual Exhaust Smoke: Changes in exhaust appearance may indicate combustion or emissions system problems requiring diagnosis
  • Repeated DEF or SCR Warnings: Dashboard alerts indicate DEF quality concerns, dosing problems, or SCR efficiency faults
  • Unexplained Coolant Loss: Coolant levels decline without visible external leaks, potentially indicating an internal EGR cooler problem

Continuing to operate with unresolved aftertreatment faults can lead to additional derates, failed regenerations, or component damage. Professional diagnosis helps determine whether cleaning, regeneration, or mechanical repair is the appropriate solution.

What Happens When an EGR Valve Goes Bad?

A malfunctioning EGR valve can interfere with exhaust gas recirculation, potentially causing rough operation, reduced performance, increased emissions, or fault codes. Carbon buildup, sticking, and electrical problems are possible causes. Inspection helps determine whether the valve requires cleaning, repair, or replacement.

Is It Better to Clean or Replace a DPF?

Cleaning may be appropriate when a DPF is restricted by accumulated soot or ash but remains structurally serviceable. Replacement may be necessary when the filter is cracked, melted, severely damaged, or cannot be restored through approved cleaning procedures. The decision depends on the filter's condition and the underlying cause of restriction.
